When we stop to truly ponder the enormity of what He did for all of humanity--and how sometimes I even take it for granted--such grace breaks me.

Unbelievable yet beautiful and completely true. Thank you so so SO much, girl!

Powerful. The...Oh, Christine, this is so beautiful! Powerful. The dialogue especially really got to me. The simple answer to all our doubts, fears, and guilt is "I love you." Wow. And to think that Jesus would look upon us with such love is incredible. (I love that, the profoundness of a *look*. He wouldn't have to. But He does. And He sees us as *righteous.*) It's all more than I can fully comprehend! Thank you for once again wording the truth so beautifully. <3Tracey Dyckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03445222618456673198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139091376044743904.post-38189180360299110002016-04-03T14:19:34.514-05:002016-04-03T14:19:34.514-05:00That was so sweet of you!
